Hophead & Pellet Rubber
Hello everyone, I've just finished collecting my brew equipment and would like to start my first brew with a fruity New Zealand style IPA since those are one of my favorites. I will be doing a 20 liter batch.
For hops i'm thinking Galaxy, Pacific Gem, Nelson Sauvin, Wai-ti, Wakatu...
For yeasts I read good things about WLP023 Burton Ale or WLP648 Brettanomyces Bruxellensis Trois Vrai to accentuate fruityness.. these are however not NZ yeasts and I would like to stick to NZ ingredients only so any yeast recommendation would be welcome.
Are there any yeasts I should avoid to brew with for beginners?
Would it be better to keep things simple and go for a single hop IPA?
Is there any recipe out there that you can recommend?
Thank you for helping out and best wishes for all.
